i Il BRITISH STAND FIRNM IN MOSUL OIL SSUE Insist That Lausanne Pact Shall Send Dispute to League of Nations. CURZON NOTE WITHHELD Delays Letter to League in Hope ; That Turks May Change Minds. U. S. Position ‘Outlined. By the Associated Press. LAUSANNE, January spokesmen at the Near ence anflounced today that they would insist that a clause he Inserted in the projected treaty with Turkey to pro- vide that the dispute over the Mosul Ol district be referred to the league ©of nations for examination and deci- cion Meanwhile, it was sald, the Mosul ent would not be permitted to interfere with the continuation of the conference or with the presentation of the allicd treaty draft, which is »lmost completed.” Lord Curzon's letter to the league of nations, which he announced last night as foreign secretary of the British empire, he would send, appears to be temporarily withheld in the hope that the Turks may change their mind and accept his proposal to refer the Mosul prob- lem to the league. Lord Curzon held a lensthy con- ference with M. Bompard and Marquis di Garroni, heads of the French and Itallan delegations, respectively, to- day, to dctermine the future pro- vedure. An important American featute of t night’s dramatic meeting was a statement read hy Ambassador Child outlining the position of the United States. Mr. Child said that Lord Curzon had clearly indicated that the British government would hold aloof as far @s possible from making concessions in Mesopotamia, otherwise called Irak, the subject of deepest interest, and he had declared his bellef in the orinciple that large factors in the world's resources should not become the subject of monopolistic develop- ment. . The representatives were glad to nselves with the intent ernment’s policy, but neither the st nor adherents had reference to an particular resource or ficld of eco- vomic activity.l Only those who wil- tully perverted these declarations had read into them meanings which suited their own political ends Ambassador Child continued “The American representa ) refer to Lord n of the validity Turkish petroleum com- and to remind the conference without seeking special priv- ge or r. the government of the i'nited States has not assented to the principle that it may be dissociated in the rights of peace from the usual consequences of association in war. nor in other cases where anoiher principle is invelved, will it abandon its the open door. responde: already accumulated under two suc- cessive administrations in the United States. So far as a means to’furnish protection to legitimate American nterests is at their hands, it does not affect the duty of the American representatives whether the identity n rights is associated with ial or any other American interest. Mr. Child ¢oncluded by saying that corporation afforded an opportunity to suggest that where there were conflicting claims already in existence rights to resources concerning legal ¢ provided for a some means should judicial settlement of these _rights, which would give complete assurance of impartiality. He held that such impartiality could not be provided for specifically in ad- vance, but that under a general prin- ciple the interested parties should be satisfied as to the impartlality of the juridical determination at the time of the reference of the conflicting clalmp. Boyeott Threat Hinted. The -British spokesmen sald last «[night that Lord Curzon would un- idoubtedly send his commission in time for its consideration at the next meet- ing of the council of .the league in Paris, which is set for January 29. They called attention to Curzon's words, that if the Turkish govern- ment declined the council’s {nvitation to state its case, then the league would probably place in operation all the penalties that exist for such emergencies. These are 'of an eco- nomic nature and bind the league to boyeott Turkey. (The league of nations has never adopted definite rules for a blockade: each member 18 practically its own judge as to whether to institute a blackade or not.) The British added that the latest developments seemed to them dis- tinctly unfavorable for the success of the Lausanne conference. The confer- ence, however, will continue its la- bors, and the Turks will later be pre- sented with the draft treaty, in 11th and G Sts.
